I like the scents, that are like something baking. I don't bake as much and microwaves don't make the house smell as evocative as times past.

I have no sisters, so....Melissa McCarthy seems very likable and real.  I have loved her since the Gilmore girls.

My brother actually reminded me of Tom Selleck.
